The LastBroadcast has a review online for the first episode of “Single Father”. Single Father returns David Tennant to the Television screen, possibly in his most chilling and challenging role ever… A single father of 4 young kids.
Okay, I maybe exaggerating slightly, but I have enough trouble with a Wife & a 6 year old… (Honey, I’m kidding!)
New four-part drama Single Father tells the story of Dave Tyler (played by Tennant), a photographer facing the seemingly impossible job of bringing up four kids alone after the sudden death of his wife, Rita (Laura Fraser). On hand to help out is his her best friend, Sarah; played by another familiar televisual face, Corrie’s Suranne Jones.
This opening episode spends no time, and pulls no punches, in addressing the death of Dave’s wife – it’s an horrific moment, further emphasised by the familial joy we witness beforehand.
